„Hendrik Brinkmann, graduate from the College of Architecture, Media and Design (Berlin University of the Arts) for his project “Neue Bau|akademie Berlin – a club for the former & future architecture” (http://ytaa.miesbcn.com/work/521). The project is a contribution to the contemporary debate on the programmatical and architectural future of the Bauakademie in Berlin. Working on reconstruction means posing a set of questions that make the typical design problems more complex: all decisions need to take into account the existing building which might be long gone but very prominent in mind.
The Jury considered that the author sets a rhetorical project with questions to be asked with engagement, implicitly having a social and cultural relevance.“
